When David Servant read the outcomes of his high-school occupational ability test, he laughed. The results advised him that he was best fit for a position in ministry or in entertainment. During the time, David Servant's future goal was to live in a log cabin in the wilds and live off the land for the remainder of his life.

The Lord, however, had various prepare for David Servant. God didn't plan for him to run away from the world, but rather to play a part in altering the world-- by building God's kingdom. David Servant received his call to ministry throughout his (unwilling) freshman year at Penn State, and one year later on was registered in Bible School.

Upon graduation, David Servant and his new bride-to-be, Becky, pioneered their first church in David's home town of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. That was more than thirty years back.

Throughout the years, David Servant and Becky Servant originated and pastored three churches, all 3 which were extremely missions-oriented. David commonly traveled globally to teach in pastors' conferences, throughout which time he developed many ministry friends in scores of establishing countries.

When David was serving at his third pastorate, Jesus' words in Matthew 25-- the foretelling of the future judgment of the sheep and the goats-- captured his heart, and that birthed a change in his ministry. Heaven's Family was the outcome, launched in 2002.

David Servant is the author of 8 books, including Forever Rich, and the The Disciple-Making Minister, a 500-page equipping handbook that has actually been equated into more than 20 languages and is being dispersed to 10s of thousands of pastors.

David Servant and Becky Servant have actually been wed for 32 years. They have three grown kids and one grandchild.
